Attempted Bike Hijacking


Cape Town Tank

Recommended Posts

Just heard someone on CapeTalk radio mention that yesterday as he was cycling into Hout Bay from Constantia side at 5.30am, just past the grave yard, 5 guys came out onto the road and tried to hijack him.

 

He got hit on the head, but managed to divert to the other side of the road, and due to his speed managed to escape.

 

Please be aware.

EVERY TIME I GO TO THE CAPE I AM ALWAYS SO JEALOUS SEEING ALL THE CYCLISTS OUT AND RUNNERS AND I THINK TO MYSELF I WISH IT WAS THIS SAFE IN JHB :blush: PITY LOOKS LIKE THE SKUM IN THE CAPE IS CATCHING ON TO THE VALUE OF JACKING :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

Damn this is right by my place! Though you won't catch me dead out there on that road section, alone at that time!

I avoid that stretch when training. I swing off into Disa road and take the back road towards Suikerbossie. At 5:30 these days its still fairly dark. That stretch runs right past Mandela park settlement.
